Danger!
Risk of scalding and/or damage due to
incorrect installation leading to escaping
water.
Mechanical stresses in the connection pipes
may lead to leaks.
▶ Ensure that there is no mechanical stress
when installing the connection pipes.
Caution.
Risk of material damage caused by
residues in the pipelines.
Welding remnants, sealing residues, dirt or
other residues in the pipelines may damage
the product.
▶ Flush the heating installation thoroughly
before installing the product.
5.1Checking the gas meter
Caution.
Risk of material damage due to heat trans-
fer during soldering.
▶ Only solder connectors if the connectors
are not yet screwed to the service valves.
Note
Apply heat insulation to the water pipes to the
boiler outlet and to the installation.
Preliminary work
1.Check that the system volume and the volumetric capacity of the expansion vessel are compatible.
▽ If the volume of the expansion vessel is insufficient
for the installation.
▶ Install an additional expansion vessel in the
heating return, as close to the product as possible.
▶ Install a non-return valve at the product's outlet
(heating flow).
2.Ensure that the installation has the following components:
– A cold water stopcock for the unit
– A gas stopcock for the unit
– A filling and draining device in the heating installa-
tion
▶ Make sure that the existing gas meter is capable of
passing the rate of gas supply required.
5.2Gas and water connections
Caution.
Risk of damage caused by incorrect gas
connection installation.
Excess test pressure or operating pressure
may cause damage to the gas valve.
▶ Check the leak-tightness of the gas valve
using a maximum pressure of 11 kPa
(110 mbar).
Caution.
Risk of material damage caused by corro-
sion
Due to non-diffusion-tight plastic pipes in the
heating installation, air gets into the heating
water. Air in the heating water causes corrosion in the heat generator circuit and in the
product.
▶ If you use non-diffusion-tight plastic pipes
in the heating installation, ensure that no
air gets into the heat generator circuit.

2.Purge the gas pipe before start-up.
3.Check whether the connections (→ Page 21) are leak-
tight.
5.3Connecting the drain pipework for the
expansion relief valve
▶ Ensure that the pipeline is visible.
▶ The pipe must have a continuous fall and be routed to a
position so that any discharge of water, possibly boiling,
or steam cannot create any danger to persons, damage
to property or external electrical components and wiring.
◁ The piping must be installed in such a way that you
can see when water drips out.
▶ During installation remove all burrs from inside of cut pipe
work and avoid excessive adhesive which may trap small
pockets of water close to the pipe wall which can freeze
and build into a larger ice plug.
▶ For any installation the condensate must be free flowing
and not be possible for air back-pressure to prevent water flow.
▶ As with other pipe work insulate the condensate dis-
charge pipe to minimise any risk of freezing and beware
when crossing cavities that the fall is maintained and the
pipe sleeved.
You can find further information in specification "BS 6798"
for installing and maintaining gas-fired boilers with a nominal
heat input below 70 kW.
5.4.1Condensate drainage systems
5.4.1.1 Internal soil and vent pipe
5.4Connecting the condensate discharge pipe
▶ Follow the instructions listed here and observe the legal
and local regulations on condensate discharge.
▶ Use PVC or any other material that is suitable for drain-
ing the non-neutralised condensate.
▶ If you cannot guarantee that the materials from which the
drain pipework is made are suitable, install a system for
neutralising the condensate.
Note
The condensate drain pipework must have a
continuous fall (45 mm per metre) and should
whenever possible terminate at a suitable
drain point within the heated envelope of the
building that will remain frost free under long
periods of low external temperatures.
5.4.1.2 External soil and vent pipe
▶ Connect the condensate traps (1). Use the supplied drain
hose (2) for this.
▶ Connect a condensate discharge pipe (21.5 mm, not
included in the scope of delivery) to the drain hose (2).

7.3Checking and treating the heating
water/filling and supplementary water
Caution.
Risk of material damage due to poor-qual-
ity heating water
▶ Ensure that the heating water is of suffi-
cient quality.
▶ Before filling or topping up the installation, check the
quality of the heating water.
Checking the quality of the heating water
▶ Remove a little water from the heating circuit.
▶ Check the appearance of the heating water.
▶ If you ascertain that it contains sedimentary materials,
you must desludge the installation.
▶ Use a magnetic rod to check whether it contains mag-
netite (iron oxide).
▶ If you ascertain that it contains magnetite, clean the in-
stallation and apply suitable corrosion-protection measures, or fit a magnetic filter.
▶ Check the pH value of the removed water at 25 °C.
▶ If the value is below 6.5 or above 8.5, clean the system
and treat the heating water.
▶ Ensure that oxygen cannot get into the heating water.
Checking the filling and supplementary water
▶ Before filling the installation, measure the hardness of the
filling and supplementary water.
Treating the filling and supplementary water
▶ Observe all applicable national regulations and technical
standards when treating the filling and supplementary
water.
Provided the national regulations and technical standards
do not stipulate more stringent requirements, the following
applies:
You must treat the heating water in the following cases:
– If the entire filling and supplementary water quantity dur-
ing the operating life of the system exceeds three times
the nominal volume of the heating installation, or
– If the guideline values listed in the following table are not
met, or
– if the pH value of the heating water is less than 6.5 or
more than 8.5.

Caution.
The use of unsuitable heating water may
cause aluminium corrosion and a resulting lack of leak-tightness.
In contrast to steel, grey cast iron or copper,
for example, aluminium reacts with alkaline
heating water (pH value > 8.5) to produce
substantial corrosion.
▶ When using aluminium, make sure that
the pH value of the heating water is
between 6.5 and a maximum of 8.5.
Caution.
Risk of material damage if the heating
water is treated with unsuitable additives.
Unsuitable additives may cause changes in
the components, noises in heating mode and
possibly subsequent damage.

G.2Horizontal terminal positioning
BS 5440-1 recommends that fanned flue chimney terminals should be positioned as follows:
a) at least 2 m from an opening in the building directly opposite, and
b) so that the products of combustion are not directed to discharge directly across a boundary if the products are likely to
cause a nuisance to a neighbour or discharge over a walkway or patio.
For IE see current issue of IS 813.
For boilers covered within this manual.
1) Dimensions D, E, F and G:
These clearances may be reduced to 25 mm without affecting the performance of the boiler. In order to ensure that the condensate plume does not affect adjacent surfaces the terminal should be extended as shown below.
2) Dimension H:
This clearance may be reduced to 25 mm without affecting the performance of the boiler. However, in order to ensure that
the condensate plume does not affect adjacent surfaces a clearance of 300 mm is preferred.
For 1 and 2 above you can use a flue gas management kit to enable the termination point to be positioned and directed away
from the building fabric.

PRIOR TO CO AND COMBUSTION RATIO CHECK
The boiler manufacturer’s installation instructions should have been followed, gas type verified and gas
supply pressure/rate checked as required prior to commissioning.
As part of the installation process, especially where a flue has been fitted by persons other than the
boiler installer, visually check the integrity of the whole flue system to confirm that all components are
correctly assembled, fixed and supported. Check that manufacturer’s max. flue lengths have not been
exceeded and all guidance has been followed (e.g. Gas Safe Technical Bulletin TB008).
The flue gas analyser should be of the correct type, as specified by BS 7967
Prior to its use, the flue gas analyser should have been maintained and calibrated as specified by the
manufacturer. The installer must have the relevant competence for use of the analyser.
Check and zero the analyser IN FRESH AIR as per analyser manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTE
THE AIR GAS RATIO VALVE IS FACTORY
SET AND MUST NOT BE ADJUSTED
DURING COMMISSIONING UNLESS THIS
ACTION IS RECOMMENDED FOLLOWING
CONTACT WITH THE MANUFACTURER.
If any such adjustment is recommended and
further checking of the boiler is required the
installer/service engineer must be competent
to carry out this work and to use the flue gas
analyser accordingly.
If the boiler requires conversion to operate with
a different gas family (e.g. conversion from
natural gas to LPG) separate guidance will be
provided by the boiler manufacturer
CARRY OUT FLUE INTEGRITY CHECK USING ANALYSER
Insert analyser probe into air inlet test point and allow readings to stabilise.
NOTE - where no air inlet test point is provided then a flue integrity check
with the analyser is not possible. The installer should verify that flue
integrity has been visually checked in accordance with the “Prior to CO
and combustion ratio check” box above before proceeding to the
“Check CO and combustion ratio at maximum rate” stage below.
SET BOILER TO MINIMUM RATE
In accordance with boiler instructions, set boiler to operate at minimum rate (to
minimum load condition). Allow sufficient time for combustion to stabilise.
NOTE - If manufacturer’s instructions do not specify how to set boiler to minimum
rate contact Technical Helpline for advice.
CHECK CO AND COMBUSTION RATIO AT MINIMUM RATE
With boiler still set at minimum rate, insert analyser probe into flue gas sampling
point. Allow readings to stabilise before recording.
NOTE - If no flue gas sampling point is present and the correct procedure is not
specified in the manual, consult boiler manufacturer for guidance.
CHECK CO AND COMBUSTION RATIO AT MAX. RATE
With boiler still set at maximum rate, insert analyser probe into flue gas
sampling point. Allow readings to stabilise before recording.
NOTE - If no flue gas sampling point is present and the correct procedure is
not specified in the manual, consult boiler manufacturer for guidance.
SET BOILER TO MAXIMUM RATE
In accordance with boiler instructions, set boiler to operate at max. rate
(full load condition). Allow sufficient time for combustion to stabilise.
NOTE - Do not insert analyser probe during this period to avoid
possible “flooding” of sensor.

IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.
VERIFY FLUE INTEGRITY
Analyser readings indicate that combustion products
and inlet air must be mixing. Further investigation of
the flue is therefore required.
Check that flue components are assembled, fixed
and supported as per boiler/flue manufacturer’s
instructions.
Check that flue and flue terminal are not obstructed.
